Word jumping in iTerm2 or Terminal in OSX Lion

I recently upgraded from Snow Leopard to Lion and Xcode 4.1, and word jumping stopped working in both Terminal and iTerm2. Did the mappings change?

This is with and without a homebrew installation of readline.

My .inputrc looks like this:

"\e[1;5D": backward-word
"\e[1;5C": forward-word

Thanks!

Solution

  • mission control took over the same commands as word jumping. thanks to rob cowrie and nicholas riley for the heads-up on that.
